Man United's new head of recruitment 'watches £86m-rated striker' as Ruben Amorim hunts a new forward this summer

Manchester United have got their eyes on another No 9 target to fix their goalscoring issues in time for next season, according to a report.

United are on track to log their worst goalscoring tally in a Premier League campaign ever, eclipsing Louis van Gaal’s final season in 2015-16 when they scored 49 goals.

So far this season, United have netted just 38 in 32 league games; at this rate, they are set to finish the season on 45 goals.

In light of their struggles, the Red Devils' new sporting director - Christopher Vivell - was in action to watch RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko against Wolfsburg last Friday.
